A 🎩 list of network layer resources written pure JS.
Based, at least, in a CLI interface.
airpaste – 1-1 network pipe that auto discovers other peers using mdns. blecat – 1-1 pipe over bluetooth low energy. deejay – Music player that broadcasts to everyone on the same network. dhtkv – CLI for storing arbitrary key/value data in the bittorrent mainline DHT. gun – A realtime, decentralized, offline-first, graph database engine. hyperpipe – Distributed input/output pipe. hypervision – P2P Television. instant.io – Streaming file transfer over WebTorrent. ipp-printer – Create a printer on your network. peercast – Like peerflix but for Chromecast. peerflix – Streaming torrent client. peervisionary – Stream p2p content over your local network. peerwiki – browse all of wikipedia using bittorrent. screencat – WebRTC screensharing app. signalhub – Simple signalling server that can be used to coordinate handshaking with webrtc or other fun stuff. torrent-mount – Mount a torrent (or magnet link) as a filesystem in real time using torrent-stream and fuse. webcat – pipe across the web using WebRTC. websocketd – Turn any program that uses stdin/stdout into a WebSocket server. webtorrent – BitTorrent over WebRTC. wifi-triangulate – Finds your current position on planet earth using the wifi access point.
Do one thing well.
airplay-server – A low level AirPlay server. castnow – simple chromecast player. discovery-swarm – A network swarm that uses discovery-channel to find peers. Also check webrtc-swarm. dns-packet – Abstract-encoding compliant module for encoding / decoding DNS packets. Also see dns-socket. etcdjs – Low level etcd v2 client written in Javascript with failover support. geocode-wifi – Get yours latitude/longitude based on your wifi access point. hash-to-port – Hash a value to a valid port. hyperdb – Distributed scalable database. ip-packet – Encode/decode raw ip packets. magnet-uri – Parse a magnet URI and return an object of keys/values. mutex-server - Critical section controllers, like mutex and semaphore, in the network level. network-address – Get the local network address of your machine. network-simulator – Simulate a low-level computer network. rtsp-stream - A transport agnostic RTSP serial multiplexer module for Node. simple-peer – Simple WebRTC video/voice and data channels. simple-websocket – Simple, EventEmitter API for WebSockets. torrent-discovery – Discover BitTorrent and WebTorrent peers. torrent-stream – The low level streaming torrent engine that peerflix uses. udp-packet – Encode/decode raw udp packets. rpc-websockets - JSON-RPC 2.0 implementation over WebSockets for Node.js and JavaScript.
Implementation of protocols specs in pure javascript.
